I am interested, PM me please. Would like to work out how the purchase would take place (including escrows and whatnot). I'm relatively new to this forum.

Thanks!

65 Please!

How loud is this thing compared to an S9 or GPU set up?

I bought one but hasn't arrived yet , may have to wait until after the weekend as it doesn't seem like it's going to make it past customs by end of today.

It seems Bitmain has made it a habit to perfectly price discriminate amongst their customers. Something economists dream about at night. It is unfair that the second batch has released so soon with such a major reduction of price; destroying the price premium paid by first batch buyers. I do think it'll ultimately be worth it still to be in batch 1 but the risk is high and reward is at most break even.

I sent them a quick email and they replied the following:




It seems that they understand their position and are working on a resolution. If more people email them, they will hopefully understand that there are many people dissatisfied. If only a few complaints get through, they may just brush it off or give out a $50-100 coupon that most people won't end up using.

I shipped UPS, literally just got the notification.

I have just received shipping update from Bitmain. It says it is ready for UPS pick up but not shipped yet. Received a tracking number. My guess is that people will start to receive tracking info within the next 24 hours.

I like to buy Bitmain miners or random stuff online with Bitcoin and then sell these items for cash locally. Buying Bitmain miners will even net you an additional 50-60% on your investment; sometimes even more!

Of course this option would require patience but pretty much whenever miners popup on Bitmain, I'll buy a few to convert to cash or add to my own mining!

Difficulty has increased, the miner should be working fine. Difficulty has increased a lot since ZCash price has increased. Plus, last month was a godsend. When NiceHash went down, all coins difficulty dropped quite a bit. Slowly but surely, that difficulty has climbed back up.


However, you should be mining the same USD value if not a bit more than before and your previous mined coins are worth more now!! 

With that many rigs and so much equipment, have you ever considered setting up a warehouse out of state or even out of country? Here in Canada, we get between 8-15 cents/kw depending on province (in CAD). It might be worth it to spend the flight up, find a few partners, and work things out.

Also same question as above; how did you manage to get so many 1080 Ti's in bulk? I'm trying to build something of my own.


Edit: Correct me if my math is wrong, but you're looking at almost $15,000 monthly with that size of farm! For same power consumption would be ~$6,000 in Canada. Definitely worth the research if you are serious about this project.
